I have decided to give everyone a widely popular book to read based on their favorite track from 𝒇𝒐𝒍𝒌𝒍𝒐𝒓𝒆. This is probably going to flop but I’m bored so I don’t really care
First up we have The 1. For this one I’ll go with the obvious choice. The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. The story’s are similar and bonus points for the roaring 20s.
Ok next up we have Cardigan. This one gives me Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. It’s about a girl who falls in love with an older man, but he’s got a big secret. Very sad, very goth, very feminist.
Alright, TLGAD. If you like this song, you probably enjoy historical fiction and “scandalous” women. You should check out the Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne.
Exile. Oh you sad bitch... You should probably read Looking for Alaska by John Green... you won’t like the ending
My Tears Ricochet. This should be fun. If you’re obsessed with the imagery of Taylor showing up at her own funeral, go read anything written by Edgar Allan Poe.
Mirrorball. Such a great song about the struggles that come with fame. You should read The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde.
SEVEN. My favorite track. It’s also really gay. If this is also your favorite, you should read Snow flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See. It’s about two young girls who are raised in traditional Chinese households and form a lifelong bond.
August. A song about being the other woman. If this is your favorite track, you should read Tender is the Night by F. Scott Fitzgerald. The book is definitely more intense than the song but it’s definitely worth a read.
Track 9- This is Me Trying. This song is heartbreaking. It’s about feelings of insecurity, which is too relatable. You probably need a good coming of age novel. Go pick up a copy of The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
Illicit Affairs. Can we just talk about the bridge?! This song is about a secret relationship, much like Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy. However this book is really dense and there’s a lot of buildup so you might consider watching the movie instead.
Invisible String. You’re either a romantic or you’re in a stable relationship and you think this song is about you. I’d recommend you pride and prejudice but I’m going to be different and recommend you Emma by Jane Austen. Fun fact, The movie Clueless is a modern retelling
mad woman. You know I have to put in a good feminist work here. The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath. The book covers the topic of mental illness and is semi-autobiographical.
Epiphany. This song is about death and war among other things. Mostly, it is about fear. Definitely check out the Things They Carried by Tim O’Brien. This book is the only “war book” I’ve ever read and it’s not really about war. Every parable is highly metaphorical.
Betty. If this is your favorite track, you were probably disappointed when you found out James was a boy. A good book for you is little women. Jo was definitely a lesbian but nobody is ready for that conversation.
Peace. This track is so underrated. You’re probably a romantic, but you’re still pretty sad. You should read the Notebook. I’m sorry. It is what it is.
Hoax... WUTHERING HEIGHTS. I’m not explaining this
The Lakes. This song is poetic, it reminds you of simpler times, it makes you hate technology. I really think the only novel appropriate for this is Catcher in the Rye. It’s about the loss of innocence and wanting to run away from your problems. We all relate.
Anyways... This was enough entertainment for me so I don’t really care if nobody sees this. If you’re reading this, congrats.
